Thanksgiving. 
Washington, D. C., October 11. 
Bn the President of the United States of America. 
A PROCLAMATION. 
Whereas, The revolution of another year has 
a pain brought, the time vvh£n it is usual to look 
back upon the past, and publicly thank the Al¬ 
mighty for Histnerclesnnd his blessings; and 
Whereas, If any one people has more occasion 
than another for such thankfulness, it is the 
clti/.ena of the United States, whoso Govern¬ 
ment is their creature: subject to their behests; 
who have reserved themselves ample civil and 
religious freedom and equality before the law; 
who, during the last twelve months, have en¬ 
joyed exemption from any previous or general 
calamity, and to whom prosperity in agriculture, 
manufactures, and commerce hus been vouch¬ 
safed. 
Therefore, by those considerations, I recom¬ 
mend that on Thursday, the twenty-eighth day 
of November next, the people meet in their 
respective places of worship and make their ac¬ 
knowledgments to God for Ills kindness and 
bounty. 
In witness whereof I hereunto set my hand 
and cause the seal of the United States to bo 
alllxcd. 
[i.. H.l Done at the City of Washington this 
eleventh day of October, in the year of our 
Lord one thousand eight hundred and seventy- 
two, and of tiie independence of the United 
States the ninety-seventh.

The Western Union Telegraph Company. 
An annual meeting of the stockholders in 
this Company was recently held in this city. 
From the report of the operations of the Com¬ 
pany during the last fiscal year, ending June 30, 
1873, made by the President, Wm. Orton, we 
glean the following interesting facts and figures: 
On the30th of June, 1873, the (’ornpany opera¬ 
ted 03,033 miles of line with 137,100 miles of 
wire. All this is operated through 5,237 offices. 
The increase duriugtho year past was0,000 miles 
of line, 16.038 miles of wire, and «31 oiUeers. To 
perform (lie labor required for such operations 
tlio Company has in Its employ 8,347 operators, 
Who last year transmitted 12,441,499 messages, 
being an increase of 1,788,433 over the year pre¬ 
ceding. The gross receipts for the year were 
$ 8 , 417 , 0115 . 77 , the expenses $.*,0rt«,8fi'M0. leaving a 
no! profit of *2,700,233 61, which is an increase 
over the last wear of *810,646-02 in the gross re¬ 
ceipts, $603,075.07 in the expenses, and fSW,6i0.ft> 
in the not profit. During ihe past year the 
Company lias introduced ono of Hie most im¬ 
portant inventions for the transmission of mes 
sagt'S which has been made since the telegraph 
first went into operation. This is the duplex 
telegraph invented by Mr. .1. B. Stearns, by 
moans of which messages taui he transmitted 
in opposite directions on a single wire at the 
same time. 11 has come into very general use, 
and lias afforded vastly Increased facilities for 
telegraphing. The present Western Union sys¬ 
tem dates from the consolidation of the I cited 
Stales, the Southwestern, aiul the American 
companies In 1866, Mid itanet profits during that 
six years ending Junc 30. 1872. amount to $li,- 
110,004.23. Of this sum $4,85(1.879.34 teas distri¬ 
buted to the stockholders in dividends, and 
Si ,808,401.08 disbursed for interest on the Com¬ 
pany's bonds. The balance—$10,301,412.01—was 
expended In the construction of new lines, the 
erection of additional wires, and the purchase 
of telegraph property. 
James Anthony Froude. 
This distinguished historian has arrived in 
this country, and is to deliver five lectures in 
New York City. His subject is to be “ The Re¬ 
lations Between France and England.” As a 
historian, Mr. Froude is supposed to be pre¬ 
eminently qualified to give, us information on 
this subject. He will tell us a good deal of Irish 
character—give us, probably, an exhaustive 
analysis of it, since he has studied it in Ireland, 
w here he has resided for the purpose of such 
study. Tho titles of his lectures are.—“The 
Norman Conquest of Ireland,” “ Ireland Under 
the Tudors and Stuarts,” “ The Penal Laws and 
Their Consequences,” “ Grattan and the Volun¬ 
teers," “ The Rebellion of 1798—the Union and 
the Ireland of To-day." 
Tho British Chancolor of the Exchequer 
Compliments the United States. 
In a recent speech in Glasgow, Right Hon. 
Robert Lowe said: “America camp out of a gi¬ 
gantic civil war bleeding at every pore, and with 
feelings very much excited and irritated. To 
her eierna) honor be it said, she offered a unique 
instance in history. In bor ease no ‘statutes 
glean the refuse of the sword no executioner 
was called on to finish the work the soldier had 
left uudono. Whatever blood wasshed was shed 
in the height of violent conflict. No blood, no 
mockery of judicial proceeding, no semblance 
of impartiality where the sentence was prede¬ 
termined on and the executioner was ready, 
clouded the triumph of that civil war, and for 
that America deserves immortal honor." 
(Cheers). __ 
Prince Napoleon and Princess Clothllde. 
Prince Napoleon and the Princess Clothilde 
were in Paris, Oct. 11. At that date they re¬ 
ceived orders from the Government to quit 
France. Prince Napoleon refused, insisting on 
his rights as a citizen of France to live there, 
and declaring he would only yield, to force, 
while the Princess announced that she would 
only leave France between two gendarmes. A 
later dispatch reports that the Prince has 
obeyed the order. This news indicates what is 
shadowed In other dispatches, that toe Govern¬ 
ment of the Republic has something to fear 
from the intrigues and activity of the Bonaparte 
party in France. 
Thiers and Cambetta In France. 
Gambetta is stirring up France against the 
present President of the Republic. M. Thiers 
'inys be iOambetta) is trying to divide the na¬ 
tion. So ho is. He seems to be too much of a 
Republican in principle to ho willing to sub¬ 
mit or allow tho French peoplo to submit 
to a dictator with the title of President. lie 
does not seem to comprehend that kind of Re¬ 
publican freedom which gaga the press, forbids 
criticism of Government measures and acts and 
continues to shoot Communists. Nor docs he 
appreciate a President who holds his tenure of 
office by threatening to resign if t he legislative 
Assembly does not do hla bidding. Evidently 
Gambetta is willing Thiers should resign. 
Chicago One Year After the Fire. 
October 9,1872, the anniversary’ of the Chi¬ 
cago fire, was celebrated by the Chicagoans in a 
characteristic roan net—by the removal of many 
of its leading business firms from their tempo¬ 
ral places of business to their new blocks, and 
by the re-entry or the Board of Trade into the 
New Chamber of Commerce erected on the site 
of tho old building. The amount of building 
done during tho past year in tho burned district 
almost transcends belief, and Chicago, from 
this time henceforth, will assume its rightful 
place among the great cities of tho Continent. 
The October State Elections. 
The three great States of Indiana, Ohio and 
Pennsylvania have held their State elections 
since our last issue. Tho result is the Republi¬ 
can State ticket in Pennsylvania is elected by 
(variously given) from 35,000 to 35,000 majority. 
In Ohio the State Republican ticket, is elected 
by over 15,000 majority. In Indiana tho Repub. 
liean State ticket (except Governor) is elected 
by nearly two thousand majority. Hendricks, 
Democratic candidate for Governor, it is 
claimed has a majority of between 000 and 700. 
Brigham Young on Centll© Schools. 
One of the Elders having publicly advised the 
Mormon brethren to keep their children out of 
Gentile Schools, Brigham Young, the Head or 
the Church, arose and rebuked him, and stated 
that ho was glad to bcc tho Mormon children at¬ 
tending Gentile Schools, and encouraged his 
subjects to continue to send them there. This 
is regarded as a new Mormon departure. 
The Famine in Persia. 
We can scarcely believe a iclegratu which 
comes from Constantinople, dated Oct. 10,1872, 
to the effect that “ it is estimated that 3,000,000 
inhabitants died of famine in Persia, This can¬ 
not be true; if It is, it is a reproach upon mod¬ 
ern civilization. Somebody somewhere is ter¬ 
ribly responsible for It, for America alone could 
and would have savod those 3,000,000 lives with 
bor surplus products. 
Prof. John Tyndall 
Has arrived in New York, and is to lecture in 
Boston first, and about the middle of Novem¬ 
ber in New York. His reputation as a scientist, 
and his acquirements, cause the anticipation of 
great pleasure from his lectures and demonstra¬ 
tions among students of physical science here.

The effect upon the Bank movement, on the averages 
of the week, vras to add over six millions of dollars 
of the Lawful Money held by Die Banks, and toieavo

quired 25 per cent, to Deposits and Circulation. The 
previous averages showed the Banks to be under this 
line by $1,500,000. 
The Money Market immediately felt the influence 
of this change, and rates to the Merchants outride of 
Banka fell 2SS3 per cent, per annum. Good paper can 
now be sold at S®12 per cent, per annum. The Banks 
themselves are doing more for the Merchants at 7 
percent. The Stock Brokers are gettiucMoney on

the Dry Goods line, but is otherwise active and more 
satisfactory than a week or two since. The Cotton, 
Grain, and Provision markets movo more cheerfully;

most decided advance being In lb & Cotton trade. The 
Bank of England has advanced the raleof interest to 
ti per cent., and while this has notntTected the Cotton 
trade at Liverpool, it has helped to advance the rates 
of Exchange here, which had previously been de¬ 
pressed by the scarcity of Gold.
